Origin Description

The Cairn Terrier may be traced back through the ages to a storied past. The breed originated in the Scottish Highlands, where its primary purposes were as a hunting dog and a rodent killer. They were raised to seek and kill rodents and foxes in mountainous areas and thick brush so that farmers might relax. Cairns were very useful to farmers because of their manoeuvrability and ability to fit through narrow openings.
